It is with a heavy heart that we announce we will no longer be updating Aotg.com. Back in 2007, when we started, there was a lack of access to information about film, television, and commercial editing. We wanted to fix that by creating a central location for content about editing to be stored.
Since then, we've watched the amount of content about editing on the internet grow exponentially. We've also watched social media tools come and go with that growth. Does anyone remember Google Wave!? These social media tools changed how people access and search for media and information. People tend to turn to Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram for their news and information, and those are all great tools to promote your sites, but as a site that aggregates links to other sites for users, it just doesn't work for us.
We will keep the site live but archive the ability to add links and comments. We will keep our database live with the links for those who desire to use it to search for editing information and research.
Our podcast, The Cutting Room, will move over to the Filmmakeru.com website and will continue to be a place for interviews with editors and other film professionals.
Everyone who worked for Aotg.com loved what we created and are proud that we could help so many editors find content that spoke to them.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the various post events worldwide in the coming years!
Yours truly,
Gordon Burkell
Aotg.com Founder

Is it a application, is it a plug-in, does it pound through your syncing frustrations as a train through a balsa-wood blockade? Actually, it is all these things. Singular Software has come out with PluralEyes, now in its 1.2 version, which provides automatic synchronization with or without time code enabling you to sync your multiple audio and video layers seamlessly.

John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester (April 1, 1647–July 26, 1680) was a friend of King Charles II, and the writer of much satirical and bawdy poetry. He was the toast of the Restoration court and a patron of the arts who famously drank and debauched his way to an early grave, only to earn posthumous critical acclaim for his life's work.

Having completed the edit on Catch A Fire for Phil Noyce*, Jill Bilcock is ensconced in an edit suite at England’s Shepperton Studios when she picks up the phone to talk about working on The Libertine. A duck had just laid eggs outside the room, having nested in a gutter. Bilcock walks past sheep each morning at 8am to get to the edit room, a windowless, charmless space where the pride of place is occupied by her Lightworks editing gear. "I’m one of the last editors left to use this gear,".....

Here’s the answer to yesterday’s pop quiz. But first, the quiz, in case you missed it and don’t feel like scrolling.

Time for some humor. But first, a pop quiz. Where did the term B-roll come from?

An Article By Sally Menke: Editors are the quiet heroes of movies and I like it that way. We have a very private relationship with our directors, most often conducted in very dark rooms. I've been with Quentin Tarantino since his very first movie and have edited every single thing he's done since then.

Early on in my DSLR mission I, like everyone else I expect, thought they were some kind of miracle worker in low light. I kept seeing astonishing shots done with available light out on the street and they looked great. When I got my 7D I went out excitedly expecting to be able to shoot in windowless rooms with the lights off and get perfect exposure.

Don’t worry, I’m writing a proper post for today, but since it’s friday, I always think it’s better to kick off with something fun. This is a parody music video that references stuff only nerds will get. I’m a nerd. I get it. It made me laugh. You might not. In which case, read the previous posts in this series. Then you’ll get it. Congratulations you’re now a post nerd. Have a cookie!
